After Star Wars A New Hope but before Empire Strikes back existed a potential Star Wars sequel called Splinter Of The Mind's Eye. It became a book and a comic but now it's a...RUclips...retelling. A Star Wars motion comic if you will. Joy.

"Mof" was an old Dutch slang for a German during WWII, so I always just read "Grand Mof" as "Big Nazi".
Gardow he basically is 😂. Love this
That's pretty interesting, considering "vader" is Dutch for "father".
@Disent Design Shh! Don't say another word The Mouse has ears EVERYWHERE!!
@@lvitacahill2383 its close to father but not exactly
Memu no the word ‘vader’ in The Netherlands means father
Oh god, I laughed waaaaaay too hard at Vader tripping over his own arm. Whooooooooo boy. What a riot. My stomach hurts now.
I'm glad I'm. It the only one who laughed way to hard at this.
Yes indeed! Inseart Goofy scream here. :D
I never read the graphic novel, but I read the novelization. In the novelization, I don't think he trips over his arm (although, I admit, it's been a LONG time since I read it), although I'm not sure the original reason for him falling is any less ridiculous - if I recall correctly, Vader is basically so messed up due to his fight with Luke (after all, his arm did just get cut off), that he can't even walk a straight line - he's basically staggering toward Luke to finish him off, zig-zagging his way toward him, and his zig-zagging simply leads him to fall into the hole...like a drunk.
When I saw Vader tripping over his arm, I thought "Who the fuck wrote this....George Lucas? Oh wait......"
Syria Sirlay I was dead af when the admiral guy called Vader and was like "so we have someone who looks exactly like Princess Leia" and Vader was all like "Don't... fuck this up!" 😂🔫
4:46 "Oh Artoo! Lubricants at last!"
Something tells me Darth Vader wouldn't be so greatly remembered as one of the best villains ever if they had released a movie where he was defeated by tripping over his own severed arm. Darth Vader - defeated by clumsiness.
Don't forget when he just cowardly ran away from a might like the villain of a saturday morning cartoon.
maybe...still meme worthy tho
He took a blaster in the back and survived, he would still be fine lol so long as he helped his underlings survive
He would be clumsy as he is stupid.
I wonder if the comic depicted one of the more controversial things from the book--the Force Grenade. During the final battle, Darthie bends over and grunts like he's got to poo, then stands up with a ball of light in his hand--a turd made of 100% Force Concentrate--and chucks it at Luke in an attempt to blow him up. Seems like an actual grenade would be simpler.
...Oh, and also the scene in which Luke and Leia are camped out for the night and Luke, taking watch, looks Leia over and *has to remind himself not to jump her while she's asleep*. Even if they DIDN'T turn out to be brother and sister, that's MEGA-EWWWWW.
So, Lucas ended doing 'The Empire Strikes Back' instead of this materpiece?, pfff, what a dissapointment...

@@johnnaile307 Never read a novel or script, then? Or even actually watched this video and noticed how it's spelled in the comic? The quote is from 2:22. Must suck being a pedant who can't even get their pedantry right. What does that leave you with?
@@PutItAway101 🤣 artoo-deetoo is just wrong, just like pineapple on hamburgers.
didn't Darth Maul use the force to throw an object at a door switch instead of using the force to press the switch? It did look cool though.
Yeah, he did
Yeah, he did
Snag Prophet so did Luke in return of the Jedi. The rancor pit.
To save their street cred; that takes more skill?
Maybe the force can’t press switches, so they always need to throw something at it
Can I just say this video is fantastic?
The editing in several ways -- lining up with the narrators, the pictures, the animated comic bits, the little bonus things like music and movie clips added for more comedic effect.
Speaking of comedic effect, the timing is flawless. The talk about the book is hilarious by itself, but adding all these other nifty parts makes it so freaking perfect.
It's perfect comedy in my book. I love when the dialogue is filled in with James' narration
Thanks for watching! Extended audio version here goo.gl/1otmJZ.
Also this was edited by Ben (ruclips.net/user/oceansparks) with animations by Erik (mediahog.wix.com/erikchen). Great blokes. Hire them for a thing.
K
lol I really thought you weren't going to upload today
I just wanted to say, this was a great vid!
Wow do you just sit around and think, Damn what shit should we put out today, that probably no one cares about because I'm bored and need views
What's the name of the guys channel who is in this video?
I still have the original book of this. Luke was conflicted over his desire for Leia but deep down thought he was unworthy because he was just a farmer boy and Leia was a princess. Meanwhile, Leia was still carrying the emotional scars of her interrogation back on the Death Star and suffering from flashbacks, something that Vader exploited when they came to the final fight. Overall it wasn't bad, helped tide me over while I waited for Empire to come out.
I love that Luke becomes the leader of a tribe of primitive aliens by means of trial by combat. It feels like something straight out of the adventure serials that inspired George Lucas.
Can I just say how much I appreciate the editors for Mr. Sunday Movies? So many of these podcasty youtube posts just either put a static image on the screen, or a parade of public domain b-roll or AT BEST just the podcasters faces talking at you. This treatment you guys do adds both context AND complements the jokes being told. Just really effective stuff and I wish most youtube channels would imitate your style. I'm looking at you Simon Whistler and your media empire.
Mr Sunday's videos have been just superb recently! Those editors are great!
he pays us editors with food.... we're locked in his basement forced to edit...help...
That wasn't even intentional...Imma comedian and didn't know.
I'm an easy man, when Mr Sunday Movies' video pops up in my sub box, I stop what I'm doing and click on the video.
Sure do, James covers the insurance cost in case.
Same. Awkwardly enough I was in the middle of a Weekly planet pod.
Me?
Subbed but why did you want me to sub?
That's how life was meant to be lived.
They should pay you two to retell comic books. This was fantastic.
The art for the comic was surprisingly good. Simple and appealing style.
Anyway, you two are awesome
Thanks for adding visuals to this! I know this took a shit-load of time to edit, James.
I read "Splinter of the Mind's Eye" when it came out, it was, and still is, a decent book. Yes , it's typical, young reader, adventure pulp, from around 1978, but it has a good story through-line, nice suspense, and a couple of decent thrills. Alan Dean Foster has always written a decent story, and this is typical of his work.
I've read the book, and let me tell you...
The incest is REAL with this one.
Well, not really - although there is a scene where Luke is looking at Leia while she's asleep, and he's getting ideas in his head, which, in hindsight, are kinda creepy-crawly.
well, it wasn't established that they are related back when this was made.
Though i have to say, what KillerSalmon said sounds bad regardless.
I read the book as well and I'm not sure what you're on about
The incest is about as real with this book as it is with Empire Strikes Back (in fact, possibly even less real, because there is not even an actual kiss in this book). Like yeah, there are hints that Luke is attracted to Leia, but it's all pretty innocent - no one makes any move on the other one.
I seriously wonder where do people get these ideas that there is some real incest in this book... I have a feeling that these people haven't actually read the damn book...
This seems like it could make a good bridge story between A New Hope and The Empire Strikes Back. With some major revisions....
EveryPixelCounts yeah this was just one of many reasons why Legends should have been scrapped
“This seems like it would make a good story, with some major revisions” sums up so much of the EU. Then Disney basically did that with Han Solo’s entire back story, which is like a greatest hits list of EU story beats and... people hated it!
It actually stayed in the EU in that exact spot I believe. (Before Disney killed all the books and started over that is 😅)
@@bellowingsilencehave you read eu stuff you disney fanboy
You guys HAVE to review the Star Wars comic from the 90's where Luke turns bad and the Emperor returns--as a clone (AHEM Spiderman clone saga).
They ended up doing it! And it's fucking hilarious! 😂
Lads, I have it! Grommel is Snoke
but Halla is the one wearing his gold bathrobe
Grommel was the original Snoke, and Palpatine had some of his clones pickled in a fish tank just in case
This was the greatest thing ever

Ok dude
Geeez, Luke with the pimp hand like Batman slappin' Robin.
Luke slapping Leia made me ROFL.
This was HILARIOUS. I haven't read this comic/book in years, it was a nice reminder. the animated parts were pretty good too. Thanks for this, looking forward to more... Could you do the old Dark Horse series... Dark Empire??? I'd be really interested to hear your take on it!
15:34 they ask you if you're fine and you say you're fine but you are not really fine.
Stormtroopers:
‘You’re all under arrest for bloody fighting, that’s not on’
"Alright."
Back where the caravan began in 2021! What a show 👏
this was one of your best videos. it was funny and the editing was SUPER! you should do something like this with Batman comic, like you did with that Batman movie.
star wars would be way cooler in Australian... use the force mate!
REAL EYES OPEN “are we BLIND?! DEPLOY THE GARRISON, MOVE!!!”
Most improvised best friend banter on RUclips bugs me but you two are hilarious and witty. One of my favorite channels easily
"This kind of mining is ILLEGAL!"
Uhh... says who? Obviously not to the empire... Ya know technically the people who make the current Law in the galexy... plus its a...EMPIRE. They do what they want lol.
Ben does this so well. All the editing is always really good, but the sounds are all done so well. Much more immersive and a great way to present a comic to enhance it for video
"you're an idiot. I'm in charge"
To be fair, that is probably the nicest Vader has ever been to someone who failed him.
I just really enjoy how the mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell.
*mitochondrium is or *mitochondria are
Man this is crazy, going back to the first one, I love that the jokes are still the same style after all these years! Never change boys!
Vader tripped on his own frickin' arm...holy crap thats hilarious
most feared sith lord in the galaxy defeated by son by tripping on severed arm
Vader tripping over a severed arm and tumbling down a hole is my favorite thing in Star Wars now
Holy shit... a 20 minute vid?? I'm ducking feeling the vibes
I think i havent been laughing this hard for weeks. Vader tripping over his own arm is just so... awfully awesome.
Any fellow new viewers finding this after watching tons of newer videos and being caught off guard by the extended intro riff?? 😨
Fast becoming one of my top channels...love you guys!
Fun Fact: The planet this takes place on, Mimban, was reintroduced to canon in Solo along with the red underground dwellers.
Weird. Why plan for a modest sequel in the case the 1st film tanked?
If your film tanks, you don't get a sequel ;)
Lucas has always sought to defy industry conventions and do things his own way.
Back in the day. Lucas would have easily convinced Ladd to greenlight this low budget sequel if the original tanked.
LOL look at all those god awful horror movies that get sequels upon sequels.
It was the 70s and block buster film making didn't exist
SmevMev It’s called a contract.
I really enjoy when you guys summarize or narrate stuff.
THAT WAS AN AMAZING JOB ON THE EDITING!! Really well done Ben! Podcast fun as always!
Loved the part about Vader tripping over his severed arm. lol
Wow, this comic is drawn by the mighty Chris Sprouse, who is now a pretty major talent in the comics world. This is one of his earlier projects, but it still looks like his work.
That story was actually really good 😂
Guy's I red this when I was 12 or 13 after it came out. I don't think you appreciate how incredible Star Wars was for an audience who had grown un up on movies like Ice Pirates (the Staple) Star wars could do no wrong and a book like this meant for juvenile fiction was GOLD. PS great episode
Make this a reoccurring series. Please.
The judo chop dood at 6:40 is probably the most embarissing thing has happened to Danish evening live television!
The way you explain shit is a bloody crack up mate
Props to the editors! Must have been so long to do all this...It looks perfect tho!!
This Luke is definitely Anakin's son and would be turned to the dark side.
1970s: Here's a simplified sequel in case the first one tanks.
2020s: If the first one doesn't break box office records then we throw the whole concept in the trash
Literally everyone could always use more James and Maso
I totally read that book when I was a kid, I've never met anyone in person that has ever read it. Your explanation of the missing Han Solo and the fog makes total sense now.
There is a scene in the book where they have to cross a huge underground lake, that part was super crazy (the unknown of how deep the water is, what is in the water, etc).
I remember it was pretty good.
took you long enough... nah I kind but was waiting on this and couldn't sleep love the videos mate
kid*
Waking up to this (even when I've already listened to the audio twice) Is a good way to wake up. The fact that The Weekly Planet podcast is already up is the icing on top. Keep up the good work and all that!
always love the clips from the podcast
I'm kind of surprised that nobody's done a fan film version of this.
A couple of highlights from the book include a scene where Luke and Leah get through one part of the cave by lobbing grenades into random creatures mouths that they have to walk over, Luke creepily regarding Leah's lips as she sleeps only to decide against it, because duty, Luke thinking that Vader's severed arm had less blood than he expected and an internal monologue describing Vader's definite non-deadness as "Like a bad aftertaste in the mouth." Also the sentence (italics from the book) "But it was there... _Vader was alive!"_
Have I mentioned I love this book?
the way the artist drew leia...she looks like my mom...that's kinda weird...
Damn
+Anthrax I've seen enough hentai to know where this is going...
@@ThierryRocksTV I'd love to know your thought process when making this post.
@@RetroIsaac Jfc it's a joke lol
I for one would like to see this be turned into a fan film or something. Maybe even if done w/ just action figures, but preferably w/live actors.
Bloody anything give me a lootcrate
What is is this? I'm only 12.
Don't click, it's some pern
bravo to who ever did the visuals and editing for this, top notch! you guys make my want to read this comic series now.
"Listen you're pretty good but what do you think about this BIG ROCK!" hahahahaha
I read the print book (never knew about the comic) when it first was published (I was in the seventh grade), and a couple more times over the years. Also the Han Solo and Lando Calrissian books. Not great literature by any stretch, but for you have to compare them to the state of sci-fi of the time. The most intelligent sci-fi show produced in the 70s was Space:1999 (only the first season, and that had a really hokey premise). Even by the late 70s, Star Trek was only just starting to gain traction in the minds of studio execs owing its endurance in reruns and conventions and the surprise success of Star Wars. Nobody could imagine making sci-fi TV aimed at adults. Try choking down the original "Battlestar Galactica" or the Gil Gerard "Buck Rogers in the 25th Century". Try looking up "Quark" or "Logan's Run" sometime. Movies weren't in much better shape. "Blade Runner" and "The Terminator" were years in the future. Books were about the only place where you could find a good story.
Frankly, I liked "Splinter" for the same reason Empire is my favorite SW movie. It was gritty and mean, and victory was pyrrhic at best. Just a little piece of a war. In short, a decent story with characters I liked.
Before it turned out the galaxy was wrecked because of one dysfunctional family.
70s sci-fi was often existential and/or dystopian. "Logan's Run" is the perfect example of this. "Silent Running" and "Colossus the Forbin Project" are two other excellent films of thr period. "Star Wars" changed sci fi forever and the genre would never be the same. I actually like Logan's Run and Colussus.
@@JadisAmalthea I must admit on hindsight I probably shouldn't be too hard on Logan's Run. I found the storytelling a bit disjointed, true, but in fairness it was a good satire for the time on about a hedonist dystopia and on the increasingly prevalent youth worship that we see IRL even today. As I said, due to the treatment science fiction got back then as well as the overall state of production values in film in general it was hard to give stories the exacting treatment they get nowadays. There was no digital steadicam to take that perfect shot with instantaneous review by the director to see if it worked (the shot that first got me thinking about this was in Stargate SG1, where some monster of a cameraman got an amazing continuous shot walking backwards up a spiral staircase and around a boardroom table all while perfectly framing the characters that were in exposition). All they had were big, bulky cams on tracks, morning rushes to review the previous day, and budgets on most movies that couldn't afford a lot of expensive days of reshoots on expensive silver on sets in movie lots where space was still at a premium. Then there's the executives to please, many of whom are the type that felt Star Trek TOS was too 'cerebral' for any viewing audience to understand and felt controversy other than skimpy female costumes ran counter to profit.
I will have to take your (implied) advice and watch Colossus: The Forbin Project. I've never heard of it or the novel it was based on. Thanks. :)
Wow there used to be more intro jams that's sick. Just good stuff from a couple rad dudes
Cheers mate!
is this the very first caravan of garbage?
origins!
I read the novel. A lot of the story takes place in a cave. There was a lot of Luke inner monologue over his attraction to Leia. Lots of incestual innuendo from the two of them. A romance was blossoming between Leia and Luke in the novel.
This was excellent! More of this please!
That long intro sounds awesome
Goes without saying that this's been LOOOOOONNNNG since established as non-canon.
But the fact that it was personally commissioned by George Lucas as a successor novel and possible film sequel gives it a certain legitimacy. Before Disney slapped us all in the face by demoting the entire Expanded Universe to the status of legend, "Splinter of the Mind's Eye" was considered canon, taking place chronologically between Episodes IV and V (so "Splinter..." and Episode V are not mutually exclusive as sequels to Episode IV, although the latter is clearly the superior of the two with respect to both quality and overall importance). The rather flippant and dismissive reading these guys give of the story in this video does not do it justice. As a lifelong Star Wars fan, I really enjoyed reading the original novel from 1978, and the comic book adaptation done two decades later by Dark Horse was excellent, having successfully provided a visual representation of the story that perfectly realized how I had always imagined and expected it would appear.
Been waiting for this since the audio version came out, glad to say I'm satisfied by this. Bloody good work I say Mr. Sunday, bloody good.
This was hilarious. Are there any more?
This was freaking amazing! Didn’t know what to expect but my mind blew up with the careful attention to detail and overall complexity of the edit. You guys made an otherwise worthless story, worth watching through this video. Was referred here from th Star Wars Explained channel.
this was glorious
years later and i still want more
I like Splinter. Before Empire existed, it was fine.
Nothing in which Darth Vader is clumsy enough to trip over his own severed arm is "fine."
I respectfully disagree. I read the book, hot off the tails of some great EU novels, and was amazed by how boring, tame and out-of-character it was.
I struggled to finish the thing, and only did so cause I used to never leave a book unfinished.
that Vader shit the end was FUCKIN HILARIOUS
"Oi, Luke, I killed your bloody mates!" - Darth Vader
Great video man, I love when you post animated shorts or have cuts for what you guys are talking about. Keep it up mates.
Of all the RUclips critics out there, Mr. Sunday Movies easily has the best sense of humor. The way he delivers these voice overs always kills me and Mason is a great partner in crime.
Very informative and entertaining! Thankfully, this story was never made into a movie, however, I like the idea of Luke and Leia teaming up to take on Vader, that would have been cool. Also, it's such a shame that Leia never used her Force powers in TFA, a lost opportunity. Anyway, I look forward to seeing more of your videos. You just earned a new subscriber! :)
This was the greatest thing ever never stop making these!!!! GRAB DAT GEM
Really need you both to read more comics this was beautiful and very well done lmfao
How often are we getting a Caravan Of Garbage? I know they said in the last podcast but I forget. Is it weekly or monthly or whenever?
Four to start with.
As someone who watches your videos and listens to your podcasts every week, this was AMAZING! Please continue to do these!
This is amazing! I can tell how much effort this took and I laughed out loud multiple times haha!
Do other Star Wars Novels!!!! I WANT MORE!!!
I remember trying to read that comic book a few times and being bored by the bland script, but the artwork is excellent.
The Vadar/Leia fight!!! TEARS IN MY EYES!! HAHA
fuck yes keep it going mates
Old bugger, here... I remember getting this from the Schoolastic Book Club when first released, before Empire was even a thing. And bloody loving it! I would have been about thirteen, and at the time, in a world we can't even imagine now-a-days, where Star Wars material was scarce as fuck, this was pure GOLD!
Really surprised by the quality of this episode. Usually when you go back and find a channel's first video, you can tell they were still figuring things out, but they were in mid-season form right from the jump.
Thanks mate, Ben and Erik had a lot to do with making this hold up!
@@mrsundaymovies This is one of my favorite CoG and I revisit it so often. Please do some more comics on CoG!!
